Perfume - recommend me one!

[hunkermunker]

Need a new perfume for Christmas.

Don't like musky, heavy ones, do like light, sea-type or grassy or fruity ones.

LOATHE Angel. LOATHE LOATHE LOATHE. It makes me want to heave if I smell it on someone else.

Ahem. Have offended many of you, I'm sure

Please help me

Oh, and Extreme by Paul Smith.

diesel white is nice and fresh

And believe it or not Britney Spears perfume is supposed to be lovely?

L'eau D'issey by Issey Miyake came top in a recent smell test with both men and women.

I actually asked a mum at school the other day what she was wearing as it smelt so nice... a bit like fabric conditioner... I think she said it was GHOST

i have always loved chanel no5, but since i've been selling perfume and aftershave i have found some other great smells, ghost deep night is lovely as is jean paul gautier i think that we all tend to have a favourite and stick to it, the prices are so expensive to just take a risk. as said below issey miyake mens and ladies are both very scrummy.

Light Blue-D&G and Eau Svelte by Cristian Dior.

ditto the light blue d&g

LOL Beetroot - yes, you're right, I know - but I'd hate to choose something that MN disapproved of, eh

sarah jessica parker lovely is really nice im testing it today may have to buy it myself

Try looking at the Jo Malone website. She groups her fragrances into different families, and there are quite a few fruity or green ones. you can also combine them to find something that really suits you.

its not light and fruity but its my signature and I love it and no-one else I know wears it - Paloma Picasso - yum yum

my mum got me flower by kenzo last year and i really liked that. i'm like you, i don't like musky ones either, give me a migraine!

I love light perfumes to, in my tme I have worn
Eden
Eau de Eden
Green Tea (Elizabeth Arden)
Summer Green Tea
L'Occitane Green tea
(do you notice a theme here!!)

However I do love Provocative woman in the winter, and my MIL bought me Armand Basi perfume from duty free (can't find it elsewhere) was sure I would hate it, but it is really lovely!!

Beyond paradise by este lauder is luurrrvvley!!!!!!!!!

I'm not normally a fan of perfumes, but am quite taken with the new Escarda, clear bottle, light green perfume & the new Paul Smith one, which comes in sort of white bottle with a multi-coloured lid.

They are on sale in Boots & when I'm at work I spritz my wrist & STILL can't make up my mind which I prefer.

They are both soft & powderey & they made me feel like a WOMAN !!! (instead of a wife/mother)

Provocative Woman is such a naff name for a perfume - it has to have been thought up by a fat middle aged man, getting all lechy at the thought.

It brings to mind a woman flashing her tits.

hi i sell most of these perfumes mentioned below, i get damaged box stock,but some boxes have the smallest creases and most are still suitable for a gift. if anyone wants to look at my site then email me through contact another talker or can i put my email address on here?
